LONGBOW—WHEREAFTER
🏹🤔
Being of Punjabi descent, I know bhangra very well indeed and I’m glad to see it was accepted – very cool! Thank you.
Thanks for the insight, Mark! I found AFTERGLOW but was unable to connect it. BHANGRA completely slipped my mind!
LONGBOW WHEREAFTER here too.
Same
WHALEBONE ENGRAFT here, after only a couple of minutes (late because I was leading Morning Prayer – well, just me today).
But initially, I thought, eep, no ABLE, GHT on the same side, etc. etc. So really glad that worked today!
Hey, does ENGRAFT count as ‘Half OA’? 🤣
Nice work, Samuel and Mark, and can’t wait to see you here, Kanishk, RF – good luck, everyone! Happy Thursday!
Miss Irim, I failed today! Huhuhu…From the list of answers, I only saw LONGBOW and AFTERGLOW, but failed to find a match.
8/12.
61/71.
Nice work Miss Irim! 👍👏
*hugs*, I’m sorry, hon…wishing you a long streak to come, beginning tomorrow. xx
Oh, RF, I’m so sorry. I know, today was a hard one. I managed to come up with FLOWER, NARWHAL, LONGBOAT, even WHALEBOAT which I was sure would work. Then found AFTERGLOW. Was unable to find a match. After seeing WHEREAFTER I spotted LONGBOW from the remaining letters. So not fast by any means.
Anyways, tomorrow is always another day, best of luck for tomorrow and wishing you a long streak this time!
Interesting whalebone vs blowhole; so close yet so far.
Good job, Irim, well done for spotting WHALEBONE. I somehow completely missed it.
I came up with LONGBOW – WHEREAFTER – inefficient but it worked. Very restrictive array today. I was afraid to lose my streak – took me just under an hour.
Well done, again, to everyone who solved, and Happy Thursday!
10/12, 62/71

Whalebone Engraft…
Old Dr. Scrimshaw had some very controversial ideas.
